Reality Check
When you think you have it all figured out
You wanna take another shot of life
But it's stout
Went into the world and it was all the same
You quickly realized you didn't change a thing
That's the problem
When you think you know it all
Quick to speak and not to listen
First thing you did was fall
Ready for the world uh?
Close your mouth and pay attention
Back to step one
This is re-admission
Be silent, that's what The Lord say
Be patient, you'll get it one day
Man it don't happen over night
Oh, your way or no way
That's got you no where right?
Your way don't work for you
Go ahead and quit
That's what you always do
You don't think you can make it
Or should I say take it
You're full of pride
At least you don't fake it
But if you keep working at it, you'll be alright
Pray about it
Every day and every night
Don't reject people trying to help
Oh, I get it God
You wrote this for myself
